Favorite Quote:
"You know your path, child. Now, Follow it!" -Grandmother Willow, Disney's Pocahontas


Always,
Do you take
What I say
Literally?
What you
Catch
Is not
Always
What I
Release.
Why must it
Make sense
To you,
If it
Makes sense
To me?
Not always,
Therefore, the
Status quo
Is abstract.
Now take
What I make,
And see
What you
Extract.

Why must everyone understand what you are trying to say all the time? Can't anyone ever just frolic in the mystery and motion of the words?
